Dear Mattingley families and friends,
Over the last three weeks the children
have been having dance lessons with Heidi from Dancify. She has taught them
three fantastic dances which they have all loved learning and performing at the
end of each session. Through these sessions the children have been given the
opportunity to explore different ways to move their bodies with a series of
steps that Heidi taught them to wonderful music.
Dancing benefits a child’s education,
supporting them to develop coordination, balance, flexibility, stability and
memory. It was fantastic to see the children recalling the dance steps that
they had learnt and being able to put them all together to perform the whole
dance at the end of each session.
We would like to thank Heidi for coming
to our school to teach her dances. She was bright and bubbly and was able to
engage all the children with her energy and fun dance moves. We hope that she
will come back next year to teach us some more dances.
Just a quick reminder that Nativity
RSVP’s need to be back by next Friday (the 7th of November). If you
haven’t already done so please hand them to Ms Garland on the front desk or
place them in the reply slips box. Thank you.
Kind regards,
Kimberley Mason
Early Learning Centre Teacher
